Lurking in the Bushes, July 1960

It’s time to show off my newest acquisition in the Scary Mickey/Minnie collection. Yes, these two lurking in the bushes by the Main Street Train Station at Disneyland would scare the s$%t out of most people. Especially Minnie, with her hands wrapped around the railing and her nose perched on top of it.



In case you crave more (you know you do, dahling!), here’s Mickey circa March 1960:



Undated in the 1960’s. He’s sucking the life out of this guest while tightly holding her hand.



Still, not quite as scary as Mickey and Minnie from January 1959.



Hope you enjoyed this morning’s blog post. More of a jolt than a cup of java!

Halloween in February!

Nope, it’s not Halloween; it’s February 20, 1960, and these scary-looking Mickey & Minnie Mouse characters were the ones that greeted guests on that Southern California morning. I don’t know about you, but these particular models have always scared the bejesus out of me. They just look really creepy.



And in case you missed the sign, NO PICNIC LUNCHES INSIDE THE PARK! Pay the admission and head over to Holidayland while you can (and please be sure to send me some photos from there!).

I hope you all made out like bandits last night in the candy department!
